Brussels Lace.

Brussels lace is celebrated all over
the world, and We must not fail to visit
one of the places where this beautiful
and costly lace Is made. Here we see
number of women, very quiet, very
neatly dressed, and in some cases with
wonderfully delicate and soft-looking
hands, although they are all plain
workingwonen. Each is busy fash
ioning the delicate pattern of piece
of lace, and it is said that each woman
has pattern of her own, which she
always makes, and which, perhaps, de-
scended from her mother and grand
mother. Some of the women are
working on cushions, with pins and
bobbins, and some are using needles
and the finest and most delicate thread
We are told that this threpd is all
made by hand, and it is 20 delicate
that it has to be spun in domp cellars,
because in the dry upper ar it would
break before it is finished. There are
old women in Brussels who have spent
nearly all their lives spinning in GET
lars. - Frank X. Stockton, in ST.

AT CHICAGO.
How tho Prisoners Received the News
Police Precautions.

CHICAGO, Nov. 3.
When the news came from Washington that
the Supreme Court had refused the writ OF
error and made public its decision. to say that
the heart of every man around the Jail jumped
up into his throat almost tells the truth. Clerk
Price actually turned pale and Jailer Folz
talked with excitement. 1t is understood that
everything rests on that decision, and
IL was waited for with much
dread almost as though each man
himself was interested. The inform alton was
hastily written a slip OF paper and Chief
Clerk Price himself took the notes up TO Spies
and Parsons TO see what they would soy. Their
faces might as we'll have been stone for an the
feeling they betrayed Not n shiver, q shrug
Of the shoulders, nor any act that looked as II
IL made any difference to them whether the
Supreme Court decided they should hang on
not. When Clerk Price broke the news "a
Parsons tho latter was as impassive rs
q marble statue. Not muscle moved, and II
hi. heart stood still an instant one could tell
It, Putting hts cigar between his lips, he
picked mp newspepsr and slowly remarked

Spies conduct was Parsons over again.
Mr.. Osborne, who keeps the death-watch In
murderers' row, was then prevailed upon to &C
to the cell Of each anarchist and tell him tho
decision o; the Supreme Court. When the
white haired officer came down he was trem
bling with emotion and his voice was choked.

Swiss Landsfips.

Speaking of the recent landslips ct
Speringer, the London Standard saws:
Many of the Swiss villages exist almost
on sutlerance; the avalanche of snow.
or the avalanche of earth, may at any
time sweep them away, or, what is
equally as ruinous, overwhelm them with
the debris of the mountain at the foot
of or on which they are built. In not
few instances, the landslip is so slow
in its progress, that it is only ques-
ton of time when the final catastrophe
will be precipitated. At Bee Rouge, in
the Tarentaise, for example, the side of
the mountain is gradually overwhelming
the village of Miroir. In most cases,
however, the calamity is sudden and
unexpected. Such an instance is sup
piled in the fall of Kossberg, q we'll
known mountain 5000 feet high, stu
ated behind the better known and
loftier Rigi. In 1906, after very rainy
season, large portion of the
mountains, consisting of beds of hard
sandstone and pudding stone, resting
on soft sandy layers, suddenly swept
across the valley of Goidau, burying
four villages, comprising over 800
houses, nearly 500 inhabitants and
more than eighty square miles of fer
tile land. In lo55 mass of debris slid
into the valley of the Tiber, which,
damned back by the obstruction, over
flowed the city of st. Stefano to the
depth of fifty feet, until the drowning
village was relieved by means of q
hastily constructed canal. Another
example of a disastrous landslip is that
in which, by the sliding of portion of
Monte Como, the entire village of
Plurs, with 2,430 inhabitants, was, in
16lS, overwhelmed. For several days
before the catastrophe masses of rock
had become detached from the
mountain, and numerous assures were
observed to form or widen on its sides.
But the villagers disregarded the warn
ings, and were in a few minutes buried
with their possessions beneath sixty
feet of rock and earth. All attempts
to penetrate the mass proved fruitless,
and no trace of the town has since been
seen. The earth which entombed it il
now covered with luxuriant forest of
chestnuts, but the original name sur
wives in the village of Plurs, or Pfuro.
1t may almost be said that these catas-
trophies are so frequent that history
preserves the memory of only the most
! disastrous.

New York and St Louis Anarchists wild

The New York anarchists are wild over the
decision of the Supreme Court, says dispatch
from that city, and threaten all sorts of venge-
ance. Said one of them There are fully 5000
10000 recently enrolled into a new order
called Anarchists Avengers Society sworn to
butcher any one concerned in the murder Of
any OF our numbers It's new order, but its
influence will soon be known"
The news OF the decision was received with ter.
rible threats. They Immediately called a meet
ing To express hatred for the Government and
the existing order of things. The editor of the
anarchist organ said If these men are al
lowed to hang there will be an outbreak in Chi
cago that the authorities will be powerless to
quell. and that will result in bloodshed and
damage to property. The reign of terror that
now prevails in Russia will be- inaugurated in
this country.

Enrlishmen Ahead of Us.

English people of position surpass our
own in direct, practical forms Of doing
good. The rector Of a principal church
in the Isle of Wight suffers no Sunday
morning service to pass without boldly
reminding his titled hearers, after SER
mon, of the wide distress among the poor
at their gates, speaking of special cases
during the week, and urging the duty Of
personal visitation, inquiry and aid, in
which, his parishioners say, he follows
his own injunctions literally. The
Baroness Benlsen gives pleasing picture
of the prompt charity of her father in the
bad harvest OF 1893, when even families
of wealth were exhorted to consume as
little bread as possible at meals, and
brown bread was in fsshion. He wrote
his brother at New York to send him a
quantity Of wheat flour, which he sold in
small quantities at cost to the poor,
standing in the servants hall and seeing
the applicants himself. Societies move
slowly, but there is nothing TO prevent
any good man or woman tomorrow
setting up the sale of fuel and food at
cost, in small quantities, which would be
the salvation Of the poor of this country
from one of their worst miseries. New

There could hardly be a family with
more diversity in It than the vanderbilts
possess. While William X. Is an ardent
devotee of fashion, Cornelius inclines to
religion and philanthropy, and George is
q veritable recluse-studio,is thoughtful
and visionary. To George has fallen the
charge Of his fathers mausoleum, and
he spends O considerable portion Of his
time in that sacred duty Twice week
of late he has made the trip to the ceme-
terry, bleak ride over on Staten Island,
and examined the locked register, by
means of which the detectives record
their hourly visits. The widow of Will
liam II. Vanderbilt has solicitously in
mind the theft of Alexander 7. Stewards
remains, and she urged upon George the
utmost precaution against q similar out
rage. The private guardsmen are there
fore maintained at tho tomb, and will DO
for several years. Another desire Of
Mrs. Vanderbilt, strangely, is that the In
scription ON the compartment holding her
husbands dust shall not be known by
other than the family. This is q nero
whim, of course, but George sedulously
respects it, and no eyes save those of a
Vanderbilt can gaze on the tablet. Even
the detectives do not have entrance to tho

The Modern Cook Book Dinner.

The modern recipes for making cheap
dishes are framed upon the supposition
that you are to obtain the materials of
manufacture for nothing. They should
be written in this form: Go to the market
and beg beef bone from the butcher;
steal couple of parsnips and half n
dozen of potatoes out of the peddler's
cart; get your grocer to trust you for
half pound of rice; borrow from your
neighbor a cupful of flour; from another
neighbor hod of coal; put your bone
into quart of water and let it stew
slowly; slice your potatoes and parsnips;
get an onion somewhere and slice it also;
put these in with the bone; stew two
hours and add your flour; simmer twenty
minutes and serve. This dinner will sup
ply father and mother and twelve chill
dren, and there will be enough left to feed
four tramps. Cost, ne-hundredth part
Of cent for match to start fire. Who
would be poor?-Boston Courier.

An ImmIarant n, Castle Garden.

It may be Of interest to readers to
learn something of the process, of landing
and discharging an immigrant ut Castle
Garden. After the steamship has been
inspected the steerage passengers are
placed, with their baggage, on a barge
and taken direc5 to the garden. Here
the baggage is transferred to the baggage
room and the passengers are sent to the
rotunda, where they are registered. Then
they arc given instructions in their re-
spectivc homo tongues regarding the de-
parturc of trains and such other matters
as directly affect them. A short time is
IL now afforded those who wish to leave
at once for out Of town to purchase their
tickets. This having been done, the re-
naming portion of the arrivals are sep
arated from the rest and tho licensed
boarding house keepers are allowed into
tho rotunda to solicit business. Those
who engage board are then given a
chance to leave. Those who are expect
ing friends wait until call for them is
received, and others, who have no friends
nor any settled plans for the immediate
future, arc allowed to remain in the
building over night. These people sleep
on the floor of the rotunda upon their
own bedding. Those who are sick or
destitute are removed to the temporary
hospital to await transportation to Wards
island whence they are discharged to re-
main in the city or sent back to Europe
upon the return Of the steamships which
brought them here, depending entirely
upon their ability to care for themselves
and avoid becoming public charges.
Those immigrants who are able to care
for themselves, but want some sort of
employment and have no friends to Sc
cure it for them, are provided for by the
labor bureau. In speaking of the opera
tions Of this department Mr.. Connolly
said that female immigrants are and al
ways have been at a great premium.
He has large number of applicants for
servants in excess of the supply, About
100 ladies visit the bureau daily looking
for servants, besides & great number of
applications which come by mail from
every part of the Union. With the men
employment is not always SO easily OBJ
tained, especially at this season of the
year, when outdoor work is not generally
engaged in. Still most of the fmmi-
grants are provided with places without
much difficulty. Last year the bureau
provided employment for over 16,OOf

The costume of the Jewesses of Tunss
is striking and peculiar. The first time l
saw one standing at the door of the house,
1 thought she had just got up and had
forgotten to dress herself before appear
ing in public. They wear tight, short
chemises, reaching only to the hips;
wooden sandals, fastened to the feet by a
single strap across the toes, and very
small, comical caps, called "kufias. !"
The bottoms of their feet, the palms of
their hands and the tips of their fingers
are stained a yellowish brown with
henna, and their nails are stained black.
The kufia is of some bright color and
heavily embroidered with gold and silver.
The rest of their apparel is of silk and of
the brightest colors. When they go out
into the streets they sometimes put on a
haik and bright colored greaves, with
gold or silver embroidery,
They are all inordinately fat, purposely
made SO by system of diet. They look
like ballet girls who have escaped from
the theatre in costume. The dress Of the
little girls is the same, except that it is
all white. They are generally pretty,
and some Of them, with regular features,
languishing black eyes, clear olive conf
pleXiors and dark curling tresses hanging
over their neck and shoulders, are per-
feet beauties. They lose their beauty
aud become coarse soon after the fatten-
ing process begins, which is usually at

Waves of the Ocean.

1t was at sea for about twelve years Of
my life, and have been through all
manner Of sea storms in about all tho
different seas in the known world. 1
have seen it blow so hard that it was inn
possible for a man to put his head above
the ships weather rail, and if a man got
into the rigging he would have to stay
there for lull before he could move up
or down. The heaviest or highest sea
ever saw was in the Atlantic ocean, on Il
passage from Montevideo. We Were
"hove to- under bare poles for four
days; the sea was running twenty-seven
feet high, which makes the trough of
the sea also twenty-seven feet, and to
look up at the crests and down at the
sea seemed like looking fifty or sixty
feet. But you may depend ON what
tell you, no ship ever lived in a sea
running forty feet high nor did anybody
ever see wave running fifty miles an
hour. They do go fast, but no faster
than the wind, and am not SO sure Of
the wind going fifty miles an hour. The
heaviest gales ever encountered were in
the Atlantic, off Bermuda, Cape Hat
teras and in the China sea.-George NJ.

WHY the Nightingale Sings.

The Westphalians have curious ex-
planatory myth regarding the nightin-
gale. They imagine that the birds song
may be rendered in these syllables of
human speech: ''Is tit, is tit, is tit, to
wit, to wit-Trizy, Trizy, Trizy. to bucht,
to bucht, to bucht.', But the last syllables
are the usual shepherds cry to his dog
when he wishes the sheep collected.
Therefore "Trizy" must be the name of
the dog to whom the cry "to bucht" is
addressed. Therefore the nightingale
must have been shepherdess, whom q
shepherd cursed because she always post
poned the marriage she had promised.
He uttered the wish that she might not
sleep till the day of Judgment. Nor does
she, for may not her voice still be heard
ut night as she cries "To bucht, to bucht,
to bucht" to her good dog "'Trizy?"--

Grinds u Man Like Emery.

Men who are tempted to make morNy
suddenly are almost invariably obliged TO
traverse the canons of morality. 1t is
almost impossible that they should keep
themselves to moderation. The fatal
fire begins to burn within them. Avarice
in its earliest stages is not hideous, though
at the bottom it is the same serpent thing
that it is at last. In the beginning it is
an artist, and the man begins to think 81
will redeem my parents. Oh! l will re-
purchase the old homestead. All! will
not make my village to bud and blossom
as a rose? will set my brothers and
sisters on high. What will l not do!'
How many things do nen paint in the
sky which clouds cover and winds blow
away, and which fade ont with the morn
ing that painted them?
I have noticed that men, when they
begin to make money suddenly and
largely, carry with them the instincts
and generosities of their youth; but
where do you find man who begins to
make money fast, who begins to pull it
in in heaps, who begins to think of large
interests from day to d::y, who shaves
and learns to look upon men simply to
see what they will bear when put under
his knife and under his screw, who be-
gins to live with money and to gloat his
eyes upon money-where do you find
such man that does not begin to have
narrower feelings, and baser feelings,
and sordid feelings, and avaricious feel
ings? Avarice grinds man like emery.
